create_bivariate_design: Creates a design matrix from a bivariate smoothing algorithm

Description

create_bivariate_design accepts two numeric vectors of equal length as inputs. From these inputs, a bivariate smoothing design matrix is produced using thin plate splines.

Usage

create_bivariate_design(X1, X2, num_knots = NULL, knots = NULL)

Arguments

X1

numeric vector for first variable

X2

numeric vector for second variable

num_knots

optional: number of knots

knots

optional: matrix of knot locations for bivariate smoothing

Value

list containing the design matrix Z and matrix of knots
